Hooking Teens with the Net

This work aims to show ways to help teens learn critical information literacy skills. It shows educators how to ""hook"" teens by integrating popular YA sites into teaching and programming, and how to use these sites for teaching mathematics, science, and language arts. Lesson plans, activity sheets, and templates are included for arts and entertainment (including music and movies). Also included are: shopping; the quest for self-definition (incorporating the use of discussion boards, mailing lists, and chat rooms); and sports. Each section includes an overview, lesson plans and activity sheets, and a list of selected resources - both print and online.
